COMMERCE YEAR BOOK, 1911 SUMMARY OF THE YEAR IN ATHLETICS r,'XVfV'V ' HE Athletic Season of 1910-11 marks a well-defined trail 35' QU toward the goal of true sportsmanship, and should offer in- .Nf Q spiration to every loyal Commerce man. Many signal vic- .ffg Eg. tories have been scored upon gridiron and diamond, soccer- ' c N' field and cross-country course, swimming pool and rifle range, basket-ball court and track. And where the Commerce colors have gone down to defeat, it was only after another inspiring example of Commerce grit and loyalty, undying and everlasting. The football team defeated Yonkers, Wliite Plains, Boys' High, Stuyvesant and Morrisg it tied Clintong and was defeated only by Erasmus. ' The soccer team defeated all comers except Boys' and Townsend Harris, winning victories from Curtis, Erasmus, Morris, Manual Train- ing and even Clinton. In defeating Manual Training, they had the great honor of being the first and only team to down the representatives of that school in this particular branch of athletics. The basket-ball' team's season was marred by the lack of right spirit in one of the players. It won a number of games only to have them forfeited by the P. S. A. L. because this player was declared a profes- sional. Among the teams defeated were Erasmus, Jamaica and Plain- field. The cross country team had a brilliant season, defeating by large scores the teams from Morris, Boys' and Clinton, and finishing second in the P. S. A. L. Championship Contest. Its only defeat was in the meeting with Barringer, whose team won by a very small margin. The track team .surpassed Five schools in the indoor Champs The Sixth Annual Meet was, as usual, a great success. The prospects for a good outdoor team are fair. p i The swimming team lost its first three dual matches, but that spirit came to the front and they defeated Erasmus, Boys' and the Riverside A. C., and finished third in the championships. The rifle team had a very successful season, finishing high in the P. S. A. L. Round Robin Series, and taking a few places in the shoots at Madison Square Garden. The tennis team has been doing good work so far, and we think a good showing will be made in this sport this year. The prospects for the baseball team this year are better than we have ever hadg and when we say this, it means that great results are coming. Summing up the record for the past year, we have every reason to feel a glow of pride. Let us earnestly hope that our enthusiasm and our faith in Commerce will ever lead .us to emulate those heroes of the past in striving at all times, 11Ot only to advance the Commerce banner, but to uphold its principles and its traditions,-sterling integrity and faith- faithin our work, faith in our teams, and faith in our dear old Com- merce High. 23
